Amazon's various Echo Dot models over the years have been the company's best-selling smart speakers ever, thanks in large part to how affordable they are. The current-generation Dot retails for $50, but it goes on sale all the time. For example, right now you can get a new 4th-gen Dot for just $34.99.
But there's another Alexa speaker that has now stolen the title of Amazon's most affordable smart speaker. It's called the Echo Flex — and it's on sale today for just $17.49!

The Echo Dot is one of the most popular hardware devices Amazon has ever made, and it's pretty clear that there are two main reasons. First, it gives users access to Amazon's beloved virtual personal assistant, Alexa. And second, the $50 retail price makes it wonderfully affordable. In fact, it used to be the most affordable smart speaker in Amazon's lineup until the company launched an even cheaper model that so many people still don't even know about.
Amazon released a new entry-level Alexa speaker a while back called the Echo Flex. While the Echo Dot is great for Alexa and for streaming music, the Echo Flex is pretty much a dedicated Alexa device. It's very compact and doesn't take up any space on a desk or table because it's just a small box that plugs into a wall outlet. On top of that, it retails for just $25, which is half of what Amazon charges for the Dot.
The Dot happens to be on sale right now for $34.99, which is an incredible value. If you go for the Echo Flex instead, however, and you'll only pay $17.49! There's also a separate deal that gets you an Echo Flex bundled with an Alexa-enabled LED smart light bulb for just $24.99, a savings of $10!
